Owari no Chronicle – Riyuu

TEAM LEVIATHAN CHRONICLE, Owari no Chronicle image song, GET SET; collected in AHEAD

Requested by McWhite.

I have yet to read Owari no Chronicle (seriously, it is a huge and complicated series), but I intend to someday, so if I missed anything due to lack of knowledge of the source, I will come back here and fix.

ReasonComposition / Arrangement: onoken
Lyrics / Vocals: Chata

The sound of wind, far away.
What carries it here is
A song that someone is humming.

On the parched road,
The swaying vegetation
Is proof of the world we protected.

There is only one word I wish for.
I believe we carry the same feelings, so…

I use these arms that are meant to protect
To inflict harm on someone,
Breaking away from both path and place.

I believe in this heat
That runs through my chest, burning stronger than righteousness,
Because living on will become my answer.

As many as there are people,
The smiles that were born
Strengthen fragile hearts.
As many as there are people,
The reaons that overflowed
Accumulate on top of the bodies.

If this road that has no visible end
Is here to let us learn, then I am not afraid, and I face forward.

Ever so right,
And yet ever so wrong,
If we are meant to understand

The sins carried by this world,
Then this pain is unavoidable.
Yes, I believe in all of that,
In the courage to cut it apart.

If you wish for the end,
I will take the beginning of everything,
I will take the past that was buried in distortion,

And I will save them with these hands of mine;
I will accept them without averting my eyes
From the shattered truth.
Let us make that vow.
